Abstract

By Markowitz geometry we mean the intersection theory of ellipsoids and affine subspaces in a real finite-dimensional linear space. In the paper we give a meticulous and self-contained treatment of this arch-classical subject, which lays a solid mathematical groundwork of Markowitz mean-variance theory of efficient portfolios in economics.
